Abstract : The increase in levels of NPK increased days to flowering and maturity, plant height, head diameter and number of grains per disc. However, the increase in 1000 grain weight and grain yield per hectare was upto 80:50:50 kg/ha NPK level after which it dropped. On the basis of these findings, application of 80:50:50 kg NPK/ha is recommended for sunflower crop to obtain maximum grain yield under irrigated conditions. ,
